Tis the season for transitional jackets (buh bye winter coats!), and so begins my love affair with this leather jacket. I have worn this with everything from neon skirts to my jogging pants. It literally goes with anything, and it feels so buttery that I could almost sleep in it. I tossed it over my elephant print dress and added some casual sandals (buh bye winter boots!) for night with my hubs. Also, I need to point out how my husband's aviators make me look like I am rocking one hell of a unibrow. Remind me never to borrow these again!

You can't have all the beautiful Spring flowers without the all day showers. The rain was really coming down yesterday, but I had about a 15 minute break where I snapped these pics. My trusty leopard print umbrella has been getting a real workout this spring!

Nothing ruins a good hair day faster than the lovely wind and rain mix that you get in early Spring, so I stuck a knit cap on and called it a day. I used to spend time stressing about keeping my hair curled, but bring on the hats and top knots! Ain't nobody got time for that!

Boy am I glad for Spring! Flowers are popping up all over town, and I have a great excuse to break out my pastels. I typically have a small window of time where I can wear this great pink raincoat, so it may or may not be glued on for the next three weeks. I am someone who owns several raincoats (acquired during my years in Seattle), but I always seem to gravitate back to this beauty because she makes me so excited for Spring!

PS: You gotta check out my post from this time last year, the outfit is nearly identical!!

Spring always means pastels in my book. I love the look of this coral top and these blue shoes together. It was finally warm enough to go sans-jacket this weekend, and you bet I took advantage of that! I wore this outfit to enjoy margaritas and the race with a girlfriend over the weekend, and it was the perfect "early spring" uniform!

About a year ago I was visiting a girlfriend in Columbus, and we stopped in a great vintage/thrift shop. I saw this coat and knew it was going to be mine immediately. I think it cost something like 12 bucks, which in the thrifting world is like $100,000,000. It has some great 80s shoulder pads that I considered having tailored out, but in the end decided to leave them. I kept the rest of the look pretty simple with a blue dress and red sued pumps.

Hello! I have had a bit of an unintentionally blogging break thanks to some camera issues, but I am happy to be back to documenting my style. I find that if I am not actively blogging then my outfits can become a little more basic. I like the extra push I get from blogging!

Here is my new favorite skirt! It is definitely not something I would typically buy, but when I saw it on super sale I snatched it up in a hot minute. I used to have a neon yellow pencil skirt that is floating around someone else's closet thanks to an unfortunate Goodwill donation decision. I miss it dearly, so this is the next best thing! When Scot dressed me for a week, this skirt was the most surprising thing he found in my closet!
